Naples, Ennio Cascetta resigns as Metropolitan president

Ennio Cascetta si è dimesso dalla carica di presidente del Consiglio di amministrazione di Metropolitana di NAPOLI spa, società responsabile della progettazione e della costruzione delle linee metropolitane napoletane. “Ho dedicato alla concezione e alla realizzazione della metropolitana di NAPOLI molti anni della mia vita professionale – scrive Cascetta – e, al di là dei ruoli, continuerò a seguirla e sostenerla.

In these 5 years as president, many results have been achieved, such as the opening of long-awaited stations and squares such as Duomo, Garibaldi and Municipio, even if the work still needs to be completed, giving impetus to the elimination of many construction sites in the city, which are improving the life of citizens, the value of neighborhoods and properties, the beauty of the city with a redevelopment that has no equal. Suffice it to remember that the subway has taken care of or is taking care of 15 squares in NAPLES.

In recent years, significant state funding has arrived to complete the archaeological stations of the Town Hall and the Cathedral, as well as for the completion of line 6 up to the Campegna depot.

We are now close to completing the Municipio station, Centro Direzionale, Tribunali and completing the civil works of line 6 from Mergellina to Piazza Municipio”. Cascetta assures that he will continue “to be a 'fan' of this project, therefore, but today there are no conditions to continue in an assignment that would end anyway with the next budget.

Furthermore, the recent appointment as president of Tecnè, the engineering company of the new Autostrade per l'Italia group, after the transfer of shares to Cassa Depositi e Prestiti and the funds takes on an even more challenging significance. I remain deeply tied to the Metropolitana and I have committed to following the project of the Open Museum of the Metropolitana, the Mam, on behalf of Mn spa.

I hope that the Municipality will soon recognize the public interest of this proposal presented three years ago by a group of private promoters coordinated by Mn to invest in the maintenance and enhancement of the museum stations of the art subway”, concludes Cascetta.
